Staff at a local rehoming centre for dogs are looking for a new home for a terrier which was left tied to their front gate.
Kilo was discovered tied to the front gates of Dogs Trust Merseyside in Huyton with a handwritten note from his owners which told them his name and said they could not care for him any longer. Other than that, the abandoned Staffordshire Bull Terrier, believed to be around six years old, was only accompanied by his food and water bowls.
The team looking after Kilo, which includes manager Georgina Lowery and Canine Carer Chris Furnell, say that his trust has been hit hard by the ordeal. But luckily they say that he is managing to gradually build a bond with the carers like Chris who are looking after him.
